PATIENTS SHOULD
Patient recently delivered In a
snooty hospital where the hut
hand is not Dermitted to remain
witn nis wuu
during dellv
ery of course
not happen
ed to have
some expert
knowledge of
surgical asep
sis. So when
the nurse at
t en ding her
dropped a pad
dressing on
the floor, pick
Dr. Brady ed it up and
was about to apply it, the pa
tient cried out in dismay and
demanded a sterile dressing.
The nurse thereupon adopted a
characteristically surly demean
nr and what is worse, she got
anrnv with it. thanks to the
wretched standards in the hospl
tal. When the patient reported
the incident to her physician the
doctor, being subservient to the
gang running the hospital, mere
ly tried to laugh it off as of no
significance, and laughed him
self out of the further patronage
of the patient's lamny..
Such atrocious offenses against
the safety of the patient are com
mitted many times a day in hos
nltals of shady character, in the
office of physicians, specialists
and dentists, and it is high time
that the public become familiar
with the principles of asepsis
so that these dangerous doctors,
surgeons, specialists, dentists
and nurses may be compelled to
give patients a break.
A patient in the chair of a
dentist waited while the dentist
answered the telephone, jingled
keys, etc., in his pocket, handled
things on his desk, wrote down
a memorandum, and ' then at
tempted to continue working in
the patient's mouth without
wasting any of his valuable time
washing his hands. The patient
properly protested. . The tooth
mechanic, for of course he was
nothing else, thereupon waxed
sarcastic and never did any
more work for the patient's fam
ily. It would be only Justice If
both of these patients brought
suits against the dirty hospital
and the dirty dentist for damages

DEMAND ASEPSIS
, due to such malpractice. It might
teach these dangerous people a
wholesome lesson If they were
required to compensate some of
their victims for the damage
done by their filthy methods.
A nose and throat specialist's
highly officious office girl (she
purports to be a nurse, of course)
went from patient to patient, in
the waiting room, applying nose
sprays or swabs to prepare the
patient for the examination or
treatment by the doctor. She
had crl herself. One patient ask
ed why she did not wear a mask.
The girl brazened it out, pre
suming upon the ignorance of
the laity, by saying the doctor
didn't approve of wearing masks
masks might frighten some
patients, you know . . . and the
patient who dared to wonder
about the breach of simple
asepsis made some excuse to get
out of the dangerous environ
ment of that office, before the
so-called nurse would give hei
a sample of whatever she had.
The patient never consulted the
dirty nose and throat specialist
again.

Garfle for singers and speakers
I have read about a Bardie vou nre-
scribe for huskincss or hoarseness of
slnaera and speakers. (M. J. C.)
nswer The sargle was originally
prepared by Mr. J. W. England, phar-
lllBU,, ,l, ruu.uniiiua nuij.ii.ii o--
cording to Shoemaker, and should be
called "England's Gargle." Some sing

II f Ult lieu
Can you throw any light on the
cause of thinning of the hair on top
of the head?-! thought if there Is any
thing to do to stop It 1 had better do
it now. (R. S. W.)
Answer When mine began to go 1
thought it was worry' about where I
could ratoe money for the rent and
the grocer. But the more I worried
the faster the hair went, and that
made me worry still more, until event
ually I decided, oh. well, to hell with
it. Don't worry, son. Send 10 centa
and stamped envelope bearing your
address for a booklet telling alt about
the hair and scalp, dandruff, graying

ASK HIGH COURT
TO BLOCK ORDER
Washington, Dec. 28 (U.R)
Attorneys for Harry Bridges
west coast leader of the Long
snoremen's union (CIO) asked
me supreme court todav to blnrk
an order for his deportation to
nusiraua.
Bridges appealed from a ninth
circuit court of appeals decision
arnrming denial of a writ of
habeas corpus to him by Fed
eral Judge Martin I. Welch of
California. Bridges requested the
wrii to circumvent a deporta
tion order Issued by Attorney
General Francis Biddle In May,
1942.
Btddle found that Bridges was
affiliated with the communist
party and ordered his deporta
tion on the grounds that the par
ty taught "violent overthrow of
the United States government."
In his appeal, Bridges denied
that he ever had been a com
munist and said the evidence re
lied upon by Biddle "Is only the
debris of an elaborate and am
bitious structure built upon the
testimony of witnesses most of
whom were the dregs of the
waterfront, and whom the gov
ernment should have quickly
recognized as such."

World War I Chief of Staff
Wonders Why Massing of
Nazis Was Not Reported.
Washington, Dee. 28 (U.R)
Gen. Peyton C. March, World
War I army chief of staff, said
today in an interview on his
80th birthday that it was "al
most unthinkable" that the Ger
mans were able to mass men
and material for their current
offensive without American in
telligence discovering what was
going on.
The man who directed the
transportation of 2,000,000 U. S.
soldiers to Europe in the last
war said the allies would even
tually fight their way to Berlin
despite the Germans' current
successes.
Can Be Unpleasant
But as a result of Von Rund-
stedt break-through, he added,
the Germans "can be mighty
unpleasant for perhaps months
to come.
"It is almost unthinkable.
March said, "that 200,000 men
could be massed against our
lines and we not know about it,
That many persons equals the
population of Richmond, Va.
Can you Imagine the whole
population of Richmond moving
toward Washington without our
knowing about it?"
March said the Germans ap
parently hoped to capture the
big American supply bases
around Liege and perhaps to
take Antwerp, the allies' best
port for supplying the armies
on the western front.
He said the Germans' present
drive is very different from
their last great offensive in 1918
when they nearly broke through
allied lines to the English chan
nel.
Almost Succeeded
Then General Ludendorff
had good hopes of winning the
war. His offensive hit between
the British and the other allies
with the aim of splitting them
apart and reaching the channel.
He almost succeeded.
This German offensive has
more limited objectives. It prob
ably is Intended mainly to "seize
our supply bases.
March said the current enemy
offensive should have been tor-
seen "because it is the classic
method of defense and has been
used before, especially by the
Germans.
He said he believed the Amer
ican intelligence service had re
lied so much on the high qual
ity of information supplied by
various underground movements
before the allies reached Ger
many that "they were unprepar
ed to cope with the problem of
inlormation out of Germany it
self." "Hitler has purged any ele
ments that might give the allies
information and so there are no
betrayals , from the German
side," he added.
